Ask for payment or cut the loss/write it off elsewhere *RESOLVED* PAYMENT PENDING *

I performed a shop at a location that had a name change FIVE YEARS AGO but guidelines were not updated to reflect the new name. I emailed the scheduler and called her. She did not give me any information on the shop except automated emails warning it was due. I did the shop and was given a 7/10 shop grade with "wrong location" notes. I received no information on payment. I received a one line email saying I would be paid unless I was told I wouldn't be. No reply if my report was used. Hmmm It was the same store, same owner, same address, same building, same campus, etc but one word in the name had changed. They went from *Wing Street* to *Wing Works* (not the real name). Chase the payment? Ask about my report? Or let it go? It's been about 60 days and all other shops are paid. I lost $11 out of pocket and a $27 bonus.

*Edited to be concise.



UPDATE!!!! This week has been great with communication grinning smiley

"My apologies that you did not get paid for this shop. You are correct in that the location name changed and the money is due to you. I have let my contact at Shopper Payments at ***** know to process this payment with the next batch of payments" Yay.

Wonder if they read this forum, too? My shop grade was also changed!!!!

60 days? Chase the payment.

Definitely chase the payment. They confirmed you would be paid, so it's worthwhile to go after it.

What is the MSC's payment terms? Several companies have a 90-day policy. Also payment is due after the report has been edited and turned over to the client. Since there were issues with the shop, there might have been a delay with the report thus not making the cutoff date for this pay period. I would follow-up with their Accounts Payable Department.
They have roughly a 60 day payout. The shop performed the day after was paid. I'll send an email to payments to double check :-) I have been nice with all my emails to them for inquiries and always leave what I feel to be polite voice mails.

Haven't been paid yet, but was promised payment with next batch of payments issued in a week or two. I read notes on the report and the shop grade was changed with notes to pay out via paypal. I guess it does pay off to keep trying to chase that paper down (: It wasn't a heck of a lot of money, but $38 will pay for my trash pick up for almost 11 weeks.
